Buckybrain Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Hello! I am wondering what the benefit or intrigue would be to apply to a program with the dual degree PA/MPH curriculum such as UW-Madison or GW? Are their more opportunities/jobs available? Is it worth it? Would it allow you to possibly work overseas? I am curious to see if it would be worth going this route (for the extra year).

MT2PA Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 It really depends on your career goals. You certainly don't need an MPH to find PA jobs and in fact you can always get the MPH later if you change your mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntlam017 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I do have to agree with MT2PA! It really depends on your career goals. I just graduated with my MPH with a concentration in infection control from University of South Florida and will start the PA program at Florida International University this fall. I don't believe that Doctors without Borders (MSF) are accepting PAs, but that doesn't mean other programs won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
